This is Unfolded has changed the way we make and sell clothes. When making our clothes, we cut the huge amount of waste most brands produce. We invest the savings from cutting waste into doing good for the world - and offering you a great price.
Your clothes can change lives...
Let's have a look at the impact we have had together
THE NUMBERS
Items

Workers
paid higher wages
Children
supported in education
HOW WE DO IT
Designing with the community
We take feedback from people just like you (over 1,500 of them now...) at every stage of the design process, so we only offer clothes we know you’ll love, unlike other brands who take a spray and pray approach to their buying.
HOW WE DO IT
SLOW FASHION - NO OVER-PRODUCTION
We only make clothes after you order, so we don't produce unwanted stock that could end up in landfill.
HOW WE DO IT
No landfill waste from our collections
Surplus materials are used to make face masks or donated to local traders to produce rugs.
HOW WE DO IT
3% RETURN RATE - NOT 30%
We encourage swapping within the Unfolded community instead of returning, and our return rate is just 3%, instead of the usual 30% that traditional retailers have - much of which ends up as waste.
HOW WE DO IT
SUSTAINABLE PRACTICES
Our packaging and production uses sustainable materials wherever possible, and we carbon offset our logistics - just as it should be.
TO MAKE AN IMPACT
WE SUPPORT CHILDREN IN
EDUCATION
Every item you buy gives a child in India (where we make our clothes) extra educational support to help with their reading, writing and maths skills. Only 50% of children aged 11+ in India are able to read and write. Helping improve this balance opens up new job opportunities in the future for the children involved. Pratham UK power our on the ground impact.
WE PROVIDE WORKERS WITH
FAIRER PAY
379 workers at our partner factory in India get paid a better rate from Unfolded than other brands through the Unfolded Workers Fund.
WE WORK CLOSELY WITH OUR
FACTORY PARTNERS
It is important that the people making your clothes have good working conditions, receive fair pay for what they do and are treated well at work. All of our factory partners are Sedex rated and we share the stories of our workers with you as your clothes are produced.
